Arriving at the only department store in the county, it was packed with people. The department store's supplies were all managed by the commercial department.
The materials purchased by the commercial sector are first sent to the provincial capital, then dispersed to various cities and counties, and finally the remaining ones are transported to various townships.
So there are only a few things going back and forth between towns and villages, and the good things have already been distributed among cities and counties.
It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. As soon as Ningxia and his friends arrived, they heard the sound of new goods coming in.
Regardless of the era, women have a strong desire to shop. Ningxia, who had been thinking about just looking around, rushed in hastily.
For her, buying or not was not important. The more crowded the place, the more she wanted to squeeze in and take a look. Ren Jingxiao was tall and strong, and he managed to make a path for her in the crowd.
The ladies in front were pushing hard, but Ren Jingxiao didn't move at all, and walked towards that station with his tall and strong figure.
The women thought: "I'm too old to squeeze in. If I were a few years younger, I would jump and push the boy out."
Ren Jingxiao was frantically protecting her, afraid that she would be bumped into by someone if she wasn't paying attention. With him protecting her, Ningxia rushed to the front row without hesitation.
I looked at the rolls of brightly colored cotton and corduroy in the salesperson's hands. Unlike the usual black and navy blue, these were unusual bright red and rose-red.
The ladies in the front were so excited that they were buying things to save for their children's weddings.
Ningxia, however, is not interested in these fabrics. Bright red, Barbie pink, rose red, each one hits Ningxia's sore spot.
She turned her eyes to the back of the salesperson, where a gray-green woolen coat was hanging. It was straight and had a tie of the same color at the waist.
"Comrade, please help me take off the tweed coat behind you." Fashion is indeed a cycle. This coat will never go out of style even in later generations.
The salesperson glanced at Ningxia and took down the clothes at the back.
"22 yuan, no ticket needed!" Not only is the clothing expensive, but the colors aren't bright either. It's just that supplies are scarce these days, and there's nothing left to sell.
I just put this up for the time being. It's still hot out, who would buy woolen clothes? The salesperson didn't expect to sell it.
"I want it!" Ningxia liked it more and more as she looked at it. She paid the money and squeezed out while the salesperson looked at her like a fool.
Seeing that Ren Jingxiao's clothes were covered with patches, he bought him two sweatshirts and a set of pure cotton clothes.
Ningxia had learned a lot about sewing, but she didn't have a sewing machine. Hand sewing was too slow, so she bought two ready-made garments to wear. She would make clothes for him later, as she had already stockpiled a lot of fabric!
"Xia Xia, I don't lack clothes, you buy it for yourself!" Ren Jingxiao saw that she bought several pieces for him, so he bought one for himself and hurriedly pulled her to stop her from buying it.
"I have clothes, and I don't like the clothes here." Ningxia lowered her voice. It would be a mistake to say that other people's things were not good in other people's territory, as it would offend them.
He looked at Ren Jingxiao's clothes that had been washed white. Well, he had clothes, some tattered clothes.
Finally, at Ren Jingxiao's strong request, he bought a pair of sneakers and the two left the department store.
